Meguro River, Tokyo

Take a stroll along the banks of Meguro River, a river flowing through the city and into Tokyo Bay. The concrete walls of the river give it the appearance of an urban canal, but the public space either side offers plentiful areas of well-maintained greenery, gardens, and lawns. The river provides a welcome reprieve from the stresses of the capital city, and has become particularly popular for its cherry blossom trees, leaning in and over the water from opposite banks to create a tunnel of blossom in some areas. Our Tokyo holiday maker app makes visiting Meguro River and other Tokyo attractions simple, and helps you make a travel plan personal to you.

There are a lot of visitors from overseas at the time of the cherry blossom viewing every year, and a lot of shops of the convenient commercial law are opened, too. It's nice to enjoy watching cherry blossoms, but it's a shame that there are so many foreigners (especially Chinese) who step on the roots of cherry blossoms beyond the fence or pull branches to take pictures. Every year, the cherry blossoms are weakening and some cherry blossoms are dying. If you want to see the cherry blossoms, i want you to observe your manners more.
